Meaning (Part 1)

Meaning: The Page of Cups, more than any other card in the Tarot, possesses the wide open and imaginative heart of a child. They perceive the world through eyes of wonder and whimsy and never take themselves too seriously. Able to find delight in anything, their heart is as light as a balloon and they are not contained by their circumstances. They know that creativity and play are for all ages, that magic exists as long as you believe in it, and that all real things were born from dreams.

Meaning (Part 2)

Pages are beginners and learners, and the Page of Cups is the ultimate student of emotions, intuition, imagination, and dreams. When they appear in a reading, they encourage us to apprentice ourselves to our own imaginations and see what magical and unexpected possibilities we may find there. They can herald a time of new emotional or intuitive growth, or they direct us to nurture ourselves in those areas. They ask us to approach our emotions in a spirit of curiosity rather than criticism, because there is oh so much to be learned about ourselves there in the heart's waters. Very frequently, the Page of Cups will show up when we're being too serious or close-minded and are shutting out room for mirth, fun, and discovery. When this happens, they knock on our door and ask if we can come out and play. Accept the invitation. New and wondrous realms await.

Visual Description

A dark-skinned person stands on quad roller skates, holding a portable boombox in one hand and sipping from a paper cup with a straw. They wear a yellow T-shirt, mint-green shorts, a pink floral open shirt, hoop earrings, and their hair fades to blue at the ends. A softly drawn shadow with crosshatch texture stretches to the left on a cream background framed by a thin black border; the title KNIGHT OF CUPS is printed at the bottom. The figure's relaxed posture and casual clothing give a modern, everyday feel.
